Pretty Woman: Seashell Kit Review + Nail Art

Hello everyone! Although summer is at it's end, I wanted to take the chance to create a last 'hooray' to summer using Pretty Woman Seashellskit. Now I never...curious...but never used any assorted crusted seashellsfor nail art, I just wouldn't know what design to do. So that actually was the result in what happened. I just didn't know what to do!

So while I was browsing online for some ideas, I rememberedone of my favorite nail artists Emun from Nail Polish Distractionon Tumblr. She creates many unique and absolutely perfect nail art designs, especially these seashells. Finally having my inspiration, I opted to do just one of her designs.

Although I was a little skeptic on using these, I a few questions came to mind: 1. Will they applycorrectly, especially the large chunks, and 2. Will this sealed perfectly on the nail, sosome seashell won't fall off? Well since I have tested as you can see on the design below, they actually are very easy to add onto the nails, and with their clear polish and a cost of top coat, it sealed perfectly.

Even going out, none of the seashellscame off, so that's a plus. Within the kit it comes in with a Gelogic Top Coat, four small containers with various pink, purple and teal seashells and a small funnel. The funnel was fairly easy to use to pour the leftover seashells back to the jar.

Now for the design, I applied three coats of Light Pink, for the base.Once the polish was completely dry, I then created a curtain like shape using a nail art brush, with Sittin' Pretty. I think this color combination fits perfectly with one of the seashell I wanted to use. Once that was set, I then applied top coat on the areas I wanted the seashells.

I continued the process until I had the base, at least, coveted. Lastly, I applied at least one coat of Gelogic clear polish, butfor good measure, I also applied a thin coat of another layer. Overall I really loved how these came out, and I didn't struggle to apply theproduct.They are available now, and retail $7.99 on their site.
